**Horizontal/Vertical Division Profile** – apply the pre-loaded profile you select from the drop-down list to part edges along dividers. The default value is None.

**Horizontal/Vertical Profile Edge Mirrored** – specify how the profiles on the other side of a divider gap will be oriented.

**Build in Place** – writes Yes/No information into the sheathing instance parameter if it is build-in-place or is prefabricated with the whole floor frame. This parameter can later be used in schedules or view filters.
